ICYMI: A Federal Judge Reeled In The Obama White House, Striking Down Regulations On Fracking

Well, while Eurosceptics celebrate their victory in the UK’s
referendum on leaving the European Union, you probably missed an
Obama-appointed federal judge striking down the administration’s
regulations on fracking within federal lands. The judge ruled that the
Department of the Interior does not have regulatory authority in this
matter (via The Hill):

A federal judge appointed by President Obama struck
down the administration’s regulation on hydraulic fracturing on federal
lands on Tuesday, ruling that the Interior Department does not have
congressional authority to regulate fracking.

The decision is a major loss for the administration, which worked for
years to update its oil and natural gas drilling regulations to account
for dramatic increases and innovations in fracking.

Judge Scott Skavdahl of the District Court of Wyoming agreed with the
arguments of industry groups and a handful of Western states that said
Congress had expressly forbidden Interior from getting into fracking
with a 2005 law, with few exceptions.

“Congress has not delegated to the Department of Interior the
authority to regulate hydraulic fracturing,” Skavdahl wrote in his
opinion published late Tuesday. “The [Bureau of Land Management’s]
effort to do so through the Fracking Rule is in excess of its statutory
authority and contrary to law.”

On October 19, 2011, Farhana Khera of Muslim Advocates delivered a
letter to John Brennan, who was then the assistant to the president on
National Security for Homeland Security and Counter Terrorism. The
letter was signed by the leaders of virtually all significant Islamic
groups in the United States: 57 Muslim, Arab, and South Asian […]

Is
this Constitutional? When is their Passover Seder? When is their Easter
celebration? What are they doing for Diwali? Why this constant
appeasement and accommodation, instead of confrontation of the most
violent and misogynistic ideology on the face of the earth?

And so the clueless Democrats in Congress staged a sit-down
stunt to try and push forward their gun control agenda in the wake of the
Orlando massacre. Only thing is...it’s not about gun control...it’s about islamic
terrorism...and unfortunately about an FBI that has totally been derelict in
its duties.

The bureau knew about this man, Omar Mateen, who in cold-blood
murdered 49 people while shouting “allahu-akbar.”
In fact, FBI officials interviewed Mateen in both 2013 and 2014, because he had
expressed support for a suicide bomber while at his job as a licensed security
guard at G4S Secure Solutions, one of the world’s largest private security
companies. And the FBI let him go deeming him "not a threat." Not a threat no
matter that it has now been proven that Mateen had planned the Orlando massacre
for quite some time and had recently purchased a semi-automatic handgun and an
automatic rifle, which the gun shop owner reported to the FBI because he had
an uneasy feeling about Mateen but who the FBI did nothing about...yet again.

And this, the current nightmare that is Orlando, is but yet another
in a long line of the FBI dropping the ball…a long line now proving to be a part
of a long-established pattern of incompetence…incompetence that reared its ugly
head as far back as 2001 when former CIA analyst and whistleblower John
Kiriakou personally witnessed a major example of FBI incompetence.

In 2002, when Kiriakou was the chief of CIA counter terrorism
operations in Pakistan, he has stated that, "I
was part of a team that raided the Taliban embassy in Peshawar that year. As
part of our "haul," we confiscated a set of… phone bills [that]
showed hundreds of calls from the Taliban to phone numbers all across the
United States… Those calls ended abruptly on September 10, 2001.”

Immediately sending the original phone bills to the FBI, Kiriakou
learned from an FBI agent that in the summer of 2002, the bills had been put
into storage until they could be translated from Pashto into English, even
though the bills were all printed and sent in English. And it gets worse, much worse, as the
FBI never opened the box of phone bills, therefore, it was never learned why
Americans, both before and after 9/11, were in contact with the Taliban…but now
we can pretty much guess why.

Also of note is the fact that since 1982 it has been the FBI
that is charged with protecting our homeland from acts of terror, yet it is the
FBI who has let us down time and again by squandering resources on terrorist so-called
‘wannabes’ and ‘sting operations’ as they continue to misjudge the nature of true terrorist threats. Want proof…the FBI has totally failed to expose actual
homegrown terror threats even when having valid suspicions about certain
individuals…and the mass shooting in Orlando and last year’s terrorist attack
in San Bernardino, California, explicitly proves that point. You remember San
Bernardino, that ‘little incident,’ as some in the media called it, where Syed
Farook murdered 14 people in yet another islamic terrorist attack. Here, too,
the FBI was well aware that Farook had been in contact with terrorism suspects,
but again they, the FBI, did not a thing about it.

The FBI did not a thing to help prevent San Bernadino when ‘red
flags’ about Farook were clearly evident while instead choosing to continue
concentrating on terror threats via ‘sting operations’ that did not pan out. In
fact, just a few years ago reporter David K. Shipler reported in ‘The Times’ that,
“Of the 22 most frightening plans for
attacks since 9/11 on American soil, 14 were developed in (FBI) sting
operations.” In other words, the would-be terrorists lacked the know how to
pull off their deadly attacks without the help of FBI undercover operatives,
and the FBI knew this yet continued along this track.

Now add in this little bit of information…according to investigative
reporter Trever Aaronson of the 508 defendants the U.S. government considered
terrorists in prosecutions brought since 9/11, “243 had been targeted through an FBI informant, 158 had been caught in
an FBI terrorism sting and 49 had encountered an agent provocateur.” Adding
that, “Of the 508 cases, I could count on
one hand the number of actual terrorists, such as failed New York City subway
bomber Najibullah Zazi who posed a direct and imminent threat to the U.S.,”
and Faisal Shazhad the media-named ‘Times Square Bomber’ whose bomb thankfully failed
to explode and who had five months of training at a terrorist camp in
Waziristan, Pakistan. And here’s the kicker, agents from the Joint Terrorism Task
Force (JTTF)… America’s ‘supposed’ front line against terrorism…had Shazhad on
their radar yet no one within their FBI partners connected the dots on the
threat he posed.

And the sad end result of this FBI dilly-dallying and totally incompetent
game playing is the Boston Marathon Bombing, the happenings at Oregon Community
College, San Bernadino, and the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, just to name but a
few.

So, I say if the FBI spends its time chasing the proverbial ‘wild
goose’ and therefore cannot keep us safe at home… which obviously they cannot do
even with an $80 billion-a-year intelligence gathering apparatus coupled with an
FBI budget request of $8.48 billion for 2016… certain occurrences must happen. First,
with a record of failure that speaks for itself, FBI Director James Comey must resign
immediately, and second, it’s high past time that ‘We the People’ accept the
fact that we must protect ourselves, and what better way to do so than to have ‘open
carry’ in all 50 states becoming the law of our land. Taking guns away from the
citizenry will not stop terrorism, counter to what the bleeding heart liberals
think, in fact it will only make matters worse as it makes us ‘sitting ducks’
but then again the liberals know that…Obama knows that…and probably see it as a
way to ‘cull the dissenting herd’ so to speak, as we cannot and must not put
anything past this bunch of Constitution trampling miscreants.

And as for Orlando and San Bernardino in specific, so many ‘red
flags’ and similarities have been overlooked…so many important changes have
occurred in how this new breed of terrorist carries out their godless acts…yet
the FBI and especially the media seem to either have closed their eyes to these
changes or willingly choose to overlook them. One case in point…both Mateen of
Orlando and Farook of San Bernardino wore protective body armor…but isn’t the
point of jihad to become a martyr for the cause…as in to become one with allah
while enjoying the 72 virgins in ‘supposed’ paradise…in other words…not to
survive. And why would one wear body armor if not hoping they would survive.

And the FBI knew well that Mateen had purchased body armor
along with his arsenal of assault weapons which should have screamed an attack
in the making. Maybe now purchasers of body armor need to be ‘flagged’ as well
for why would one need body armor except for some nefarious purpose especially
when purchasing firearms at the same time, as Mateen did.

Another case in point…why did both of these islamic terrorists
destroy evidence…as in their cell phones…before they both were rightfully taken
down in a hail of bullets if they knew in the end that they were going to die. Remember
that ISIS…who both men swore allegiance to…like to puff up their
chests and take credit for their acts of terror by bantering around for the
world for all to see said evidence of their attacks. Seems to me that by
destroying evidence what both Mateen and Farook were trying to do was to ‘protect’
their accomplices...translating into the fact that Obama’s talking points of
these incidents being ‘lone wolf attacks’ just flew right out the window.

Also, why wasn’t Mateen’s wife immediately taken into
custody…why was she given the time and opportunity to leave…to escape…Florida…as
was the family of Farook given the time to meet and concoct their ridiculous story
of a “gentle soul” becoming
radicalized by the charms of a woman. Why…because the truth is that under the
Obama administration the enemy is always protected and covered for while ‘We
the law-abiding People’ become the targets of trumped-up investigations.

So now it should become obvious, what with the FBI and all
the other alphabets being unable to protect us, that as I stated above, ‘open
carry’ should indeed become the law of our land and our personal deterrent against
those out to do us bodily harm for the fact is that 'open carry' reduces the
threat of violent crime against both the carrier and society in general as more
people are armed at any given time. Now add in that common sense and logic
dictates that if, for example, an islamic terrorist sees someone with a gun
they understand that that someone is as willing to use their gun against them
as they are against that innocent someone. Sure some will still be killed but
just imagine if even one patron of the Pulse nightclub had a gun on them…the
body count surely would have been a lot less.

And let’s not forget that ‘open carry’ is the follow through
of our Second Amendment right to “keep
and bear arms” and lets ‘We the People’ duly serve that right whether the
anti-gun crowd likes it or not. And it’s this very right that Obama and his
minions are working so hard to deny us no matter that according to Charles
Springwood of Illinois Wesleyan University ‘open carry’ "naturalizes the presence of guns, which means that guns become
ordinary, omnipresent, and expected. Over time, the gun becomes a symbol of
ordinary personhood." To me it means that over time the 'bad guys'...and
most especially the islamic terrorists...will realize that we are not the sitting
ducks they deem us to be.

And while both the ‘open carry’ and anti-gun crowd will
agree that nowhere in the Second Amendment does it mention the words ‘open
carry,’ it is important to also remember that nowhere in the Second Amendment
are the words 'background checks' or 'waiting periods' to be found as well. But no
matter as the words “The Right Of The People To Keep And Bear Arms, Shall Not Be Infringed”says it all. And unless the Constitution itself is overturned…as
Obama wishes it would be…that right is still afforded to ‘We the People’
whether some like it or not.

So now as more and more states are currently allowing for or
considering ‘open carry’ to be the law in their given state, especially after
seeing that our federal government and all its alphabet agencies are unable to
keep us safe, all I can say is that in this day and age of ever escalating islamic
terrorism it makes perfect sense for it to be so as the time for coddling and
placating the enemy must come to an end or happenings like Orlando will become
all too commonplace with more American blood turning our streets red. At least
with ‘open carry’ we innocents have a chance to fight back…without it we will
remain like lambs to the slaughter at the hands of islamic savages from hell.

Today, Saturday, June 25th, from 11am to 1pm EST, RIGHT SIDE PATRIOTS Craig Andresen and Diane Sori discuss open carry as a way to stop islamic terrorism, Trump...NOT the people's choice, and why we have become part of #freethedelegates.
